This invention relates to chemical polymer compositions, methods of synthesis, and fabrication methods for devices regarding polymers capable of displaying shape memory behavior (SMPs) and which can first be polymerized to a linear or branched polymeric structure, having thermoplastic properties, subsequently processed into a device through processes typical of polymer melts, solutions, and dispersions and then crossed linked to a shape memory thermoset polymer retaining the processed shape.

The present invention provides an optically clear adhesive sheet using a heat-curable polyurethane composition, wherein the optically clear adhesive sheet can, when bonded to an adherend such as a glass plate, prevent the occurrence of air bubbles even at high temperature and normal humidity and maintain a stable bonded interface. The optically clear adhesive sheet of the present invention is an optically clear adhesive sheet containing: a cured product of a heat-curable polyurethane composition, the heat-curable polyurethane composition containing a polyol component and a polyisocyanate component, the polyol component having an olefin skeleton, the polyisocyanate component containing an acyclic aliphatic polyisocyanate and/or an alicyclic polyisocyanate.

A stretchable wiring film includes: (A) a stretchable film made of, at least as a top surface of the stretchable film, a cured product of a stretchable film material containing a silicone polyurethane resin; and (B) a stretchable wiring. The top surface of the stretchable film has a repeated uneven pattern formed with depths of 0.1 μm to 5 mm and pitches of 0.1 μm to 10 mm. The stretchable wiring is formed on the top surface of the stretchable film where the repeated uneven pattern is formed. Thus, the present invention provides: a stretchable wiring film having less decrease in electric conductivity in stretching and excellent water repellency on the film top surface; and a method for forming the stretchable wiring film.

The disclosure further relates to medical devices comprising the aforementioned compositions, and to methods of using the compositions and devices. More particularly, the compositions, devices and methods described herein are useful for preventing protein adhesions in vivo, particularly the Vroman effect.

The weight ratio of component (B) to component (C) in the mixture is from 30:70 to 70:30, preferably from 40:60 to 60:40.

The use of an aldehyde mixture containing 70 to 95 wt % of aldehydes of formula (I) and 5 to 30 wt % of alkylbenzene compounds not corresponding to formula (I) as a blocking agent for amines results in odorless, especially economically blocked amines, which at room temperature are typically liquid and have a surprisingly low viscosity. Such blocked amines are particularly suitable as latent hardeners in isocyanate-group-containing compositions. Single-component moisture-curing polyurethane compositions formulated therewith are surprisingly stable in storage, can be used for low-emission applications without odor problems and do not trigger any problems with plasticizer migration. Surprisingly, said compositions even have advantages over corresponding compositions having latent hardeners based on purified aldehydes of formula (I), in particular with respect to viscosity, storage stability and especially strength.
